How many days after a natural miscarriage should an ultrasound be performed?

Patient's question:

I have had a natural miscarriage for three days and want to do an ultrasound for a thorough check. How many days after a natural miscarriage should one do an ultrasound?

Doctor's answer:

Since this is a natural miscarriage, it is necessary to perform a detailed ultrasound examination after the miscarriage to check for any intrauterine remnants. Typically, after a miscarriage, bleeding should stop within a week, and there should be no recurrence of abdominal pain. Therefore, an ultrasound examination can be performed one week after the miscarriage. This can clearly determine whether there are any residual tissues in the uterus or other abnormal conditions. Based on the examination, appropriate measures can then be taken.
